The chief advisor of the new interim government of Bangladesh. Muhammed Yunus said it would not be right for ousted Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who resigned and fled the country after weeks of violent student protests, to extend her stay in India.
In an interview given to the Indian media NDTV on Wednesday. Yunus said this.
Sheikh Hasina resigned in the face of a mass coup on August 5, after hundreds of people died in Bangladesh over the tumultuous movement, and arrived at Hindon Airport near Delhi the same day with her younger sister Sheikh Rehana. It is said that Hasina is currently staying in a 'safe house'.
Dr. The report, which Yunus gave to NDTV before returning to Bangladesh, revealed that Sheikh Hasina's stay in India may be extended after plans to travel to the UK and seek asylum were thwarted.
According to another report, the UK has effectively denied seeking asylum for Hasina and is considering other options, including the US and Finland. In this context, Hasina's son Sajib Wazed Joy told Indian news outlet Economic Times that his mother has no immediate plans to leave India. According to Joy, no decision has been taken yet about Sheikh Hasina's move to any other country.
84-year-old Dr. A total of 17 member interim government led by Muhammad Yunus took oath at Bangabhaban on Thursday. Earlier, Bangladesh's only Nobel laureate and Hasina's staunch critic Yunus was recommended by the agitating students as their chief advisor.
According to various Indian media reports, while India is keen to support Hasina in her time of need, harboring her for a long time could put New Delhi in a tough position as the country will ultimately focus on securing interests with the new Bangladeshi government. The next step will be to hold new elections in Bangladesh.
India's main concern is that Hasina's opponents in Dhaka could use Hasina's long-term position in India to question New Delhi's intentions.
